Good news. Companies House has finally woken up. The requirement for company owners to prove who they are doesn't kick in until the autumn but this is certainly a step in the right direction to fight economic crime.

I was pleased to meet with the Chancellor ahead of tomorrow's Spending Review to make the case for issues that matter to our community in Kensington and Bayswater —from affordable housing to transport.

I spoke in Parliament today about the sanctioning of extremist Israeli ministers Smotrich and Ben-Gvir. It is a significant step I’ve been calling for, and I welcome it — as I have other human rights and corruption sanctions this Government has deployed. The next step must be

It’s vital Britain remains open to the global talent that drives economic growth, innovation and investment. I see it every day in Kensington & Bayswater. Net migration should come down to a sustainable level after the Tories lost control—but doubling our global talent visas
